Question about playlists (lemmy.ml)

I'm just getting into NewPipe. It seems great, except there's one feature that I'm really missing from the official YT app.

I was able to subscribe to a playlist, and that's working great. But, if instead of hitting "Play All" you just pick one of the videos from the playlist, it doesn't have the rest of the playlist queued up next, it just plays the one video and then whatever algorithmic stuff comes up next. I want it to have the remaining playlist in the queue next.

When you have a playlist on youtube, if you click one in the middle, it's like you just started the playlist from there.

When you have a playlist in NewPipe, if you click one in the middle, it just plays the one video and then wanders off.

Any way to affect this? I've dug through the settings, but I'm hoping I just missed it.

Instead of tapping the video, hold down the video in the playlist until a menu pops up, and select "play in background"

I usually just select "play all" then select the video I want to start with from the queue.
